OLIVIA A. BLIMEL
(1910 - 1928)
Miss Olive Blimmel [Blimel], the 17 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Blimel, residing on Route 6, about nine miles north of Manitowoc, died of internal injuries at the offices of Dr. Guttman at Kellnersville early this morning.
Miss Blimel was seated in the front seat of a Chevrolet landau driven by her 19 year old sister, Lorraine Blimmel, when the machine rolled over three times to land in a ditch about half mile this side of Menchalville. The accident occurred about 1 this morning. According to those ccompanying the Blimel girls to a dance at Menchalville, the party was returning at the time of the accident. Coming down a hill, the machine suddenly swerved to the right and Miss Blimel, the driver, south to swing it back into the roadway but swung it too far as it skidded into the ditch on the left side of the road. None of the other five passengers complained of any hurts, but Miss Blimmel told of having pains in her stomach and she was rushed to the office of Dr. Guttman by Edward Yohanek, Kellnersville garage man, who appeared shortly after the accident. She lost consciousness en route to the physician's office but recovered under stimulants and repeated her story just before she died.
Father Arrives Too Late.
Immediately after the accident the parents were notified and the girl's father rushed to the scene but he was too late, arriving a few moments after his daughter had expired. She lived only about 15 minutes after the car rolled over. Occupants of the car who escaped without injuries were Lorraine Blimel, the driver of the car, Emil and Ludmilla Shoulek of Branch, and Harvey Sempler and Harry Zinkel of Manitowoc. Emil Shoulek and the two Blimmel girls were seated in the front with the others occupying the rear seats.
Funeral services for Miss Blimel will be held from the St. Ann's church at Francis Creek Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. Fr. Kelly officiating.
In addition to her parents, she is survived by four sisters and one brother, all residing at home. Her sisters are Caroline, Lorraine, Marcella and Dorothy and one brother Le Roy.
Miss Blimel was born at the family home on November 19, 1910 and has continuously made her home there.
